Upside down

Hi, I decided to try and pop a white widow auto, she popped, upside down!!!!!!! I don't have any pics of this as I panicked:bawling:
I took a toothpick and dug out around the seed and placed the material I had dug out onto the emerging taproot, so the seed could stand up, the taproot came out the side so I placed it into its solo cup.....voila!!:)

I just drop a few drops of water on it to soften it and give it a pinch between 2 fingers and remove it
 
What is your medium of final plant? And does the current pot have good drainage? The toothpick arrangement reminds me of doing avocado seeds. I think...to remember..roots don't like light.

The skin stayed on for one of my girls and she turned out the smallest one of all,don't know if i should've assisted her or not,it was my first pop ever...
 
Nice one Vapo,bet she's gonna be a menace growin up lol judging from her youth!! ;) Happy growing matie!
 
Hi tika, this little lady is in coco, solo cup and I put in extra drainage holes, I'm thinking of adapting the avacado style for the larger pots, do you think that would work?🙏
